EXHIBIT 9.9 PROBLEM-SOLVING BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE PERSPECTIVES
STRATEGY PERSPECTIVE. Having a good business model does not guarantee a successful business
operation. Business execution and planning is another vital aspect of an organization. Without
clear and practical strategies it will not be possible to pursue the company??™s goals, encourage
growth, and gauge its progress. Business strategies typically tackle the following concerns: How
do we generate revenue? How do we increase our client base? How do we reduce the negative
impact of volatile markets? Should we employ a proactive approach to tackle unexpected events?
These and similar questions capture the essence of the organization??™s existence. A business strategy
must be in place to lay out a long-term execution plan that focuses on the ???how??? aspects of
business implementation.
The business architecture strategy perspective represents organizational technical architectures
that can provide long-term solutions. Such technologies not only address the ???How do we
generate revenue???? aspect of a business execution but are tuned to market events and ready to
react as they occur.
